Jack Stafford - Norway and Saudi Arabia Lyrics

Norway and Saudi Arabia both won the lottery
With one lucky strike they were lifted up, out of poverty

One said whoa! Come on let's go
This is our chance we're going to take it

Built cities out of sand, turn the seas into the land
This is how we're going to make it

And we'll live it up fast, while the good times last
No one's going to stop me baby

Norway and Saudi Arabia both won the lottery
With one lucky strike they were lifted up, out of poverty

The other said no, put it away
Save it up for a rainy day

Keep the day job, put it in savings
Don't give in to carnal cravings

Cos you never know, and history shows
Sometimes it's best not to grow

Bright nights
Big city lights
Or the countryside
And the quiet life

Fast living
Or selfless giving
Different ends
From the same beginnings
